I was not very optimistic that there would be a NFL kick off this year. Well I was wrong thank Goodness. After the 1st half of week 1 my Bills have the leading rusher in the league, the problem is that title is owned buy our QB, Josh Allen and he fumbled on 2 of those runs!!! 13 carries for 60 yards in the 1st half. 21-3 half time. Zebra's just called a Field Goal attempt NFG, man it was the thickness of a credit card close. Jets just score on a 70 yeard pass and run, better start watching again at 21-9 this game ain't over because it is Buffalo playing. Bills rookie kicker Tyler Bass just missed his 2nd field goal ,he is 0-2 for his career. And they drafted this kid instead of a Football player. 21-10 Bills.

Surfing back and forth on the 5 games I am getting I learn pass interference is not reviewable this year. 2 plays where the receiver was mugged went un flagged and 2 where a 70 yard penalty was called were questionable.

Enjoy the games all. I want to see Brady in a gold and rust coloured uniform. Normally you would need to pay me to watch Tampa Bay play a game unless the Bills were plating them. I bet the TV audience numbers rival Super Bowl viewers.

You do that very well, I swear it was Mr. T.

27-17 final score Jets vs. Bills. If you watched the game film but not rhe scoring plays and didn't know the score you could say the final was 37-7 and that would be believable. A perfect example of thr score doesn't reflect how much the Bills dominated both defensively and on offence. Bills QB Josh Allen had his highest day for passing yards, over 300. He reverted a few times to last years Josh Allen with 2 fumbles, over threw a wide open receiver and ran 1st threw 2nd. Gotta go the GOAT is under centre.

Sounds like the Vikes were smacked around by the Pack Rats. Listened on the radio as we drove home from a long camping weekend with friends.

Tonight the opening weekend closes with a MNF doubleheader. Steelers at Giants and Titans at Broncos.

I'm a homer and Big Ben is back - Go Steelers!

And whoever I picked in the second game.

Wonder who Fishy picked in the MNF 1st game? Hmmm ... We could dub this game Fishy v Angus ... where is Angus, anyway? Hopefully the CC Cadets didn't kidnap him ...

Let the Giants drive down the field 87 yards to where they can smell a TD and Heyward takes it a way.

Go Steelers!

Gostkowski is 0/3 on FGs and 1/2 on PATs - That's 10 points he missed tonight. He finally got a FG with 17 seconds left to put the Titans ahead 16-14 and win the game.

Not that anyone gives a rats rump, but in the Steeler tiebreaker, I guessed 24 - 17 only 3pts off the actual score...
